What are the intermolecular forces present in CCl4? CCl4 only has
as intermolecular forces that keep its molecules together. Although the C-Cl bonds are polar, there is no dipole-dipole moment induced in a CCl4 molecule.

#”CO”_2# is a linear molecule with an #”O-C-O”# bond angle of 180°. The bond dipoles are equal and in opposite directions, so they cancel.
#”CH”_3″OH”# has a highly polar #”O-H”# bond. The #”O”# atom has a high #δ^”-“# charge, and the #”H”# of the #”OH”# has a high #δ^+# charge.
The two #”C-Cl”# bond dipoles in the plane of the paper have a resultant pointing to the right at an angle of 54.75° from the vertical.
Every #”S-Cl”# bond dipole has a partner pointing in exactly the opposite direction, so all bond dipoles cancel.
#”CH”_2″Cl”_2# has a tetrahedral shape. The two #”C-Cl”# bond dipoles have a resultant that bisects the #”Cl-C-Cl”# bond angle.
